Architects known for their uncanny understanding of bespoke luxury and canny space planning; European brands known for their incomparable workmanship; and a glazed skyscraper in Mumbai known for its exclusivity—blend them all and you’ve got the secret sauce for Soulstory, the new retail-redefining space in the city’s commercial heart. “This is not a showroom. It’s designed to make visitors feel connected to the brands, their philosophies, and feel inspired,” explains Kapil Tyagi, who founded this multibrand space, along with Florian Herth, that aims to build a gateway to European-made high design in the country.
